Nope, i don't think it is required... Plain old static HTML pages will do in most cases... But its good to know that you have done everything you can to work it out, so it's a basically issue with yourself...

i would just skip web 2.0 and build directly in web 3.0 now, to save future headaches

Quoted for truth.

Web 2.0 can be good but it can be also bad for your business. Many people think that Web 2.0 is just about AJAX and such so they just bloat their Web sites with tons of useless JavaScript which, in some cases, is even counterproductive...

Web 2.0 is not only about AJAX, and imho, you can have a quality website even without excesive use of it.

Personally, I try to avoid use of JavaScript unless it is absolutely neccessary - screen readers, PDAs and cellphones still do not support it.
